Exotic Animals Aren T Pets By Zuzana Kukol
Exotic animals are sometimes kept as pets because of how interesting they are to people. However, these animals can be very lethal if you let them loose. Exotic animals should be left in the wild for safety reasons and also because of the obnoxious amount of money they can cost. Now, animals can be a good source of entertainment, but they can really hurt people.
People need the realize this to ensure their safety. So, because of that I believe exotic animals should not be pets. Exotic animals are very dangerous and this is shown on lines 26-27 in “WIld Animals Aren’t Pets” an editorial by USA TODAY, where it says how a 2 year old girl from Florida was strangled to death by a 12 ft long Python.

There are many things you can do with money. If you do not find this convincing, consider this, if you were able to get the expensive animal, the only thing it will do is turn on you and try to kill you. There are examples of this happening that are shown in the second paragraph. So there are not many benefits in having an exotic
